CISCE to release ICSE, ISC exam dates 2021 after announcement of poll dates: Report

NEW DELHI: Council of Indian School Certificate Examinations (CISCE) will release the exam dates for Class 10 and 12 board exams after the announcement of assembly election dates. The ICSE, ISC exam time table 2021 will be declared on the official website cisce.org.

“As soon as the election dates are announced we will announce the schedule of Class 10 (ICSE) and 12 (ISC) boards. It could be within a day or two from the announcement. We are ready and waiting for the dates (of the election),” The Telegraph quoted Gerry Arathoon, chief executive and secretary of the Council.

The ISC, ICSE practical exam dates 2021 will be decided by the examiner in consultation with school authorities after visiting the respective schools.

“This is so that schools can maintain proper distancing during the practicals (because of the pandemic). In the old pattern when the council would fix the dates for practical exams, one set of students would appear for the practicals and another set would be locked up in a room. But this cannot happen now,” Arathoon said, according to the report.

The external examiner along with the school authorities will check the laboratory size and then divide the students into small batches. The practical exams will be conducted following all the social distancing norms.
